Last updated: May 2026 dataSolid-color dyeing of plain-weave cotton-blend fabrics at or below 200 g/m² places goods in heading 521031, a widely traded substrate for casual apparel, uniform shirting, and lightweight home textiles. Pakistan leads US imports under this heading, with Mexico and India also among the top suppliers. The nine 10-digit lines follow the standard yarn-count and construction matrix — poplin/broadcloth, sheeting, print cloth, and cheese cloth/seersucker — across three count brackets (≤#42, #43–68, ≥#69), so color-fastness test records and yarn-count certifications are both relevant to correct classification. Germany's presence among top suppliers points to specialty performance-dyed fabrics for technical or high-end apparel applications.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. If unbleached fabric is imported and then dyed domestically, the imported goods are classified as unbleached (heading 521011) at the time of entry. The dyed fabric produced domestically is not subject to import classification. Importers who purchase pre-dyed fabric abroad must ensure the dyeing was completed before export to classify correctly under 521031.
Print cloth (PRTCL) is a specific open-weave plain construction traditionally used as a base for printing, but when imported already dyed, it falls under the mid-count (43–68) dyed print cloth line 5210316060. Importers should confirm the construction type with the mill, as print cloth has distinct thread counts and cover factors that differentiate it from poplin or broadcloth at the same yarn count.
